Can medieval fight manuals be applied to mounted combat? Join us as we test techniques from historical texts with expert Guy Windsor. I invited foot combat specialist Dr. Guy Windsor to my arena to bridge the gap between our disciplines. While Guy is a master of martial arts history and foot combat, my expertise lies in horsemanship. Together, we put medieval fight manuals to the test to see how specific techniques translate when one combatant is on horseback and the other is on the ground. This experiment focuses on interpreting historical fencing sources through a practical lens. We examine the tactical mismatches that occur when different combat styles meet, providing a unique perspective on how these ancient systems might have actually functioned in practice. Whether you are interested in HEMA training or the evolution of mounted combat, this analysis offers a grounded look at martial arts history. Subscribe for weekly historical martial arts breakdowns, and let me know in the comments if you want to see us test more techniques from these manuals.
